You can still call out those ``small scale events'' for the shit they are.
No, you can't. The definition doesn't apply. Are you even a programmer? Fuck. The original definition (as well as what most people think is the definition nowadays) is
discrimination by sex or by gender. Calling a large scale phenomenon "sexism" is already an abuse of notation and should be done cautiously (since such a large scale phenomenon could be caused by correlations and factors unrelated to sexism).
Now let's go back to this lingo that people who hate racism, sexism and white males have developed. Saying that *
isms only go one way and not being gender- and race-blind in your judgement of a situation are
excellent ways to alienate a shitload of people and turn them against you. And they're right to do so since you are discriminating against them. If a female does something terribly sexist to a male, it is
exactly (no more, no less) as bad as a male doing something terribly sexist to a female. Claiming otherwise yields inequality, which is what you set out to fight in the first place.
One last thought: ironically, the "new" definitions of sexism and racism are, respectively, sexist and racist. Heh.

Search tumblr or twitter for posts by females who claim to dislike or outright hate white people, and in particular white males. If that's not racist and sexist (and since it is sexism against males, misandrist), then I don't know what is.
